Today is International Children's Book Day.
It is marked annually and sponsored by sponsored by the International Board on Books for Young People, an international nonprofit and celebrated on (or about) the birthday of Hans Christian Andersen and features various composition competitions, awards, and events featuring the authorship of literature for juveniles.
My personal favorite author from my childhood is Beverly Cleary who is a hundred years old and one of those pillars of my youth. She was born on April 12, 1916 and thus will be 101 in 11 days.
So if you haven't done so I invite you to share the gift of books with a child. I tried to do so with my nephews and nieces back when they were young and I believe it did favorably impact a couple of them.
Happy International Children's Book Day to you and yours !
